(a) Does the graph suggest that grade inflation is a problem in colleges?
A. Yes, because the GPAS increased over time for all schools.
B. No, because nothing can be concluded about individual GPAS from the averages.
C. No, because the GPAS are different for each time period.
D. Yes, because the GPAS are greater for private schools for every time period.
(b) In public schools, the average GPA was 2.86 in 1991-1992 and 3.02 in 2006-2007. In private schools, the average
GPA was 3.09 in 1991-1992 and 3.30 in 2006-2007. Determine the percentage increase in GPAs for public schools
from 1991 to 2006. Determine the percentage increase in GPAs for private schools from 1991 to 2006. Which type of
